Itinerary

Day1:

The trip begins near Granite, Colorado for our exciting Pine Creek portion of the trip. The group will have plenty of time before getting into the Class IV (V) whitewater as the river spills through steep grade and boulder choked rapids. This first day of rafting takes us through the Numbers Section and the famed Pine Creek (V) rapid of the Arkansas River with over 20 rapids.

This trip camps at the Arkansas Headwaters Recreation Area site known as Railroad Bridge Camp site. Our staff will greet you with a delicious appetizer and cold beverage after a high adrenaline afternoon. Relax around a campfire where we prepare a delicous meal from either menu, filet mignon, baked potato and green salad or the terryaki chicken cashew stirfry over teamed rice. To top it off our guides will treat you to a freshly baked pineapple-upside-down cake.

Day2:

The day starts with a breakfast of champions, eggs, french toast, bacon served with coffee and juice. Once the group is ready we off for another fun day of whitewater which begins from our camp just upstream above Buena Vista through the Narrows section of the Arkansas. Continous Class III rapids like the Fractions, Frog Rock, House Rock and many more eventually down to an exciting drop known as the Silver Bullet (IV). Yet another fun filled full-day of rafting for the adventurer.
